Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2 cups cooked chicken breasts (shredded or chopped into large pieces); 2 avocados, peeled and chopped; 2 tablespoons lemon juice, fresh squeezed (divided); garlic salt, to taste (I don't use too much salt because you can always add more at the table.); 1/4 cup red onion, diced; 1/3 cup feta cheese, crumbled (I've subbed goat cheese with good results); 1/4 cup pine nuts, toasted; 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped; 3 tablespoons mayonnaise; 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard; black pepper, freshly ground

2 cups cooked chicken breasts (shredded or chopped into large pieces)
2 avocados, peeled and chopped
2 tablespoons lemon juice, fresh squeezed (divided)
garlic salt, to taste (I don't use too much salt because you can always add more at the table.)
1/4 cup red onion, diced
1/3 cup feta cheese, crumbled (I've subbed goat cheese with good results)
1/4 cup pine nuts, toasted
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
black pepper, freshly ground

1
To save time and effort, I usually get a store-bought rotisserie chicken. Remove skin and chop breasts; add other pieces of chicken if necessary to get to two cups.
2
Chop the avocados into medium-sized pieces, mix with 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice to prevent browning, and season avocado with garlic salt to taste. Put in large bowl with chicken.
3
Top with onion, feta cheese, pine nuts and cilantro. Toss gently to combine, taking care not to break up or mash the avocado.
4
Whisk mayo, dijon and the remaining tablespoon of the lemon juice to make the dressing. Add a bit of water if too thick. Season the dressing with freshly ground black pepper to taste. Drizzle over salad and again toss gently to dress.
5
Serve right away or chill for a while before serving. This can be served inside pita bread or sandwich bread, or over a bed of greens/spinach, but we also like to eat it as is.
